Question by : SCRA-question about breaking a residential lease?
I am a landlord and my current tenants are a spouse of an active service member and her cousin. The service member’s spouse decided to live with her cousin for a year because she was not permitted to go with him on this assignment. Her husband finished the assignment early and now she wants to break her lease because she is permitted to live with him wherever he will be stationed next. My question is, does the Servicemember’s Civil Right Act apply in this situation since her husband’s name is not On the lease?

Best answer:

Answer by Equality
No it does not. He is not on the lease so the Service Members Act does NOT apply

The rental lease and employment are independent of each other. You cannot break terms of rental lease by using loss of job as a tool !

Why does no one ever think to talk to the landlord first? Perhaps he will cut a deal with you depending upon why you need to leave. A lease is a contract and you have legal obligations under it. You don’t give enough information here for someone to accurately inform you of the process, but I would suggest you contact legal counsel in your area; perhaps legal aid, if you can’t afford a private attorney, and see what your options are. It’s not that easy to “break” a lease without cause. However, if you have a justifiable reason (notice I didn’t say legal), and your landlord is an understanding type, he may work a deal with you where you are not financially responsible for remaining two years under lease.

Question by Steph: What would house prices be like if it was illegal to rent/lease them out as residential properties?
What would the property market look like if it was prohibited to buy houses in order let them out as residential properties? Not just nationally, but perhaps continentally or even globally?

Just a hypothetical question.

Best answer:

Answer by RockIt
The supply of available houses for renters would decline.

This would cause the price of rental prices to rise (demand exceeds supply)

Rent prices often drive housing values. So, as rental prices rise, housing prices would rise also, as the demand for homes for sale rises in the face of rising rental prices.

There are other forces at work though possible: the effect of empty homes in the neighborhood generally causes prices to fall (supply exceeds demand), and so, prices for homes for sale could drop.

We want an efficient market for sale and rent, so restricting the marketplace and consumers is generally a bad idea. Let the market dynamics work this out.

Answer by sophieb
If you are a landlord and legally renting your home (in some places you can’t rent a home as it’s against the city ordinance) then you should have an attorney “on call”. You need an attorney to represent you to work for you. Sure people get evicted every day but to enforce that to be assured you’d get your money back in the future you’d need an attorney to work for you. To gain you must invest.

If you had an attorney “on call” then all you’d do is tell him/her the basics over the phone and they’d do the entire process for you, from having the sheriff making sure the tenants get out to a lien on anything those people own in the future to make sure you get your money.

Question by KrazyK: Breaking a Residential Lease?
I know about foreign/ownership laws so I will never outright try to buy a house. Instead I am wondering about leasing options.

I figure this would be the best way to rent a house for a few years considering the area I want to reside in does not have many
house rentals available.

What would the consequences, repercussions, fee’s apply to me
If I were to break say a 15 to 30 year lease there after a few years?

Answer by ? allan y
you get thrown out as a tenant. the moment you break a single provision of a contract, the landlord could have you in the streets after due notice.
